On several recent flights I've Turned Wireless Off - obediently, when directed by the cabin crew - only to hear my BB pinging with new mail as we taxi to the arrival gate. And I haven't touched anything!

Perhaps I should add that these are international flights where the device has either searched for and found an alternative carrier, or returned to its home network.

Have I missed something?

Thats very interesting if the wireless is off it shouldnt do anything with data.
